Yesterday was a nice day again. Professional sharing day was an interesting experience, and it's something I won't forget easily. There wasn't any speaker for engineering, so I followed Audrey to listen to Medicine and Dentistry. I don't think any of them sparked any interest in me. I don't think I like the idea of having anything to do in the medical field, partly because it has a lot to do with biology and people. When I was younger, the only occupations I heard of were either being a police officer, or a fire fighter. In kindergarten (still in US), I had to draw out what I wanted to be, so I drew a fire truck because it was easier. No I didn't want to be a fire truck, but you get the idea. Then when I got a little older, maybe around 6 or 7, I learnt that my dad was an engineer, and that has been my ambition ever since. On the other hand, Jean switched from a cardiologist, to a boxer, then a bagpipe player, a lot of other ambitions in between before finally ending up clueless. I think it's good in a way I know what I want and I've stuck to it for 10 years, but then again, like what Mrs S said, if something comes along my way, I might just go along.

Everyone looked unusual yesterday. It took at least 5 seconds of staring before I could recognise most people. This is probably what most people are going to end up looking like 10 years down the road. Not everyone will be a professional, because there always has to be some workforce balance. I might consider being a professional slacker if that job is ever created. After all, jobs that do not exist now will form a large part of the jobs available when I finally graduate, so there's always hope. I think the whole professional sharing day idea was a great one because it was definitely meaningful, to a large extent. 5 months left in SMSS. I started appreciating it already, so I won't regret later on.

Today was another nice day. I think every day is a great day. Jean went to school in the morning for band practice. She's back to her drum sticks. I went with mom and dad for lunch. We were walking past Crystal Jade before finally deciding to eat at Swensens. Then I happened to look at their promotion board outside Crystal Jade. To my horror, they were trying to advertise some freaky crab dish. It put there in English: Recommendation on Various Way to Serve Gross Crab. Looking at the sign just made me lose all my appetite. Variations on serving gross crabs... Ew.

Today was Timothy Fellowship's 27th anniversary. Some members of the past 27 years were there. Let me do a bit of recounting. It started 27 years ago with the batch of people around my parents' ages. My dad was my age that year. They started the youth group and after that, it went down for generations (each generation is roughly 6 years). My parents and other teenagers in church at that time met together for fellowship and all that. I think dad led the fellowship for a while. Today, Jean and I are finally in Timothy Fellowship. Xiao Jun is the Chair, I'm her table. Though it's challenging serving in church, it definitely is rewarding. As what Xiao Jun said, on the 30th anniversary, we should just dump out everything from the cupboard and display the old stuff.
